Biomedical scientists love to complain about the government underinvesting in research but the real champion of underinvestment in research is the pharmaceutical industry a $1.5 trillion/year behemoth w/ 20%+ profit margins that has been free riding on public research for decades

Excited to share the latest work from our team published today in @SciImmunology
We demonstrate that a viral protein can be engineered to rewire signaling pathways in T cells to activate STAT5 and determined that it prevents T cell suppression!

1. Yesterday in lab meeting we discussed the proper etiquette for how to ask for reagents. Obviously if a reagent is published it should (& in my lab will) be sent no matter how the request is made. BUT its professional courtesy to do so in collegial manner. Here's a rough guide:

SARS-CoV-2 spike proteins administered via the nose in mice can interact with macrophages in the lungs, which draws in neutrophils, contributing to lung #inflammation. #Covid #Immunology elifesciences.org/articles/8…

1. My top imaging trick to trainees is that before they spend any time taking pictures of the data they just sit there for a while & look at the stuff. Like seriously, sit back, crank some tunes, get cozy & spend some quality time with your slides.

Complain all you want about peer review @FrontiersIn, but its current manifestation is the logical extension of a toxic, dysfunctional and irrational publishing culture that treats papers as currency and continues to propagate the lie that "peer reviewed" means "valid".

Seeing as the normal 2nd career option for laureates (becoming a neuroscientist) isn’t an option for you, medicine seems like a decent fallback
